A Really Good Chopped Salad

Chopped salads have been the lunch of choice for Gwyneth lately, largely because they are so riffable. As long as you have some greens as a base and a flavorful dressing, you can make a really good chopped salad with whatever else you have on hand. It was hard to choose which one to feature—we loved her Cobb-inspired move with bacon, boiled egg, grilled chicken, and blue cheese, as well as her charred chop with grilled veggies: scallions, asparagus, red pepper, zucchini, and a little anchovy in the dressing because it complements that roasted pepper so nicely. But this one seemed extra pantry-friendly, with canned chickpeas for protein and the highly underrated, tangy, spicy jarred peperoncini. Think of this as a salad blueprint to work off of—use what you have and make it yours.
